It is with a heavy heart that we announce we will no longer be updating Aotg.com. Back in 2007, when we started, there was a lack of access to information about film, television, and commercial editing. We wanted to fix that by creating a central location for content about editing to be stored.
Since then, we've watched the amount of content about editing on the internet grow exponentially. We've also watched social media tools come and go with that growth. Does anyone remember Google Wave!? These social media tools changed how people access and search for media and information. People tend to turn to Facebook, Youtube, Twitter, and Instagram for their news and information, and those are all great tools to promote your sites, but as a site that aggregates links to other sites for users, it just doesn't work for us.
We will keep the site live but archive the ability to add links and comments. We will keep our database live with the links for those who desire to use it to search for editing information and research.
Our podcast, The Cutting Room, will move over to the Filmmakeru.com website and will continue to be a place for interviews with editors and other film professionals.
Everyone who worked for Aotg.com loved what we created and are proud that we could help so many editors find content that spoke to them.
I look forward to seeing everyone at the various post events worldwide in the coming years!
Yours truly,
Gordon Burkell

No animated film has ever been nominated for a best production design Oscar, but maybe that changes this year as Lego cities, "San Fransokyo" and dragon lairs breathe fire

Hollywood's dependence on visual effects to connect with audiences never was more evident than in 2014. Seven of the 10 movies that earned spots on the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences' shortlist -- vying for five Oscar nominations in the visual effects category -- were among the year's top 10 films at the worldwide box office, collectively grossing nearly $5.4 billion.

The single best piece of advice that I can offer with regard to the difference between exposing film and exposing digital is this: It’s OK and sometimes desirable to slightly overexpose film, but it is not OK or advisable to overexpose digital unless that overexposure is exactly what you want! Cinematographers have widely varying methodologies...

Film acting is a difficult craft to judge. Actually, most film crafts are difficult to judge because they’re not usually very transparent. When you go to see live theater acting, you are certain you’re watching the extent of an actor’s performance. You’re directly witnessing their abilities. When you’re watching a film, however, you’re seeing the compilation of selected takes and a chopped-up performance. It’s more likely that a film director can get a good performance from an acto...

For the past few months, we've been working with OPM Design Group at putting a fresh face on the Guild website. The biggest design change was implementing a Responsive Web Design scheme which should give visitors the same experience on the site regardless of the device they use (from mobile to desktop computer).

Chronicling the powerful true story of Dr. Martin Luther King’s historic civil rights marches that culminated in President Johnson signing the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Selma is a particularly timely story that draws focus to the current renewed struggle against voter suppression in America.
